DISPLACEMENT TRACKING MATRIX : NEPAL EARTHQUAKE 0 DTM ROUND 6 : PUBLISHED 8 MARCH 06 WHAT IS DTM? This Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) report is produced by the International Organization for Migration in its role as Camp Coordination and Camp Management (CCCM) Cluster Lead Agency. The DTM monitors the status and location of displaced populations in temporary displacement sites, gathering information about humanitarian needs and gaps of persons displaced by the earthquake. The data is collected primarily through key informant interviews, observations, small group discussions with both men, women and children. For more information on DTM in Nepal, please visit: http://www.cccmnepal.org/dtm HIGHLIGHTS 8 in districts 6,7 7 active sites hosting 0 or more households assessed between February and 06 March 06 people from,77 households were living in 8 sites hosting 0 or more households new sites had become active after Round assessments and sites which were active in Round had been found closed in Round 6 Number of IDPs living in sites with 0 households or more by districts: 6,000,000,000 0,9,77,686,67,8,80,676, 7 9 7 6 DTM Round 6 From nd February to 6 th March 06, the DTM team identified and visited 07 potential displacement sites across the affected districts. Of these, 8 were active and hosting 0 households or more in camp-like settings while remaining were found closed or below DTM criteria (0 or more households). These 8 sites were hosting an estimated,77 households (6,7 people). Of this population,,87 were female,, male and,9 were children under years old.

This could mean that a number of households had either return to repair or rebuild their homes, or gone in search of livelihood opportunities elsewhere. It was also noted that there had been a slight decrease in proportion of male individuals living in displacement sites - from 9% in Round to 7% in Round 6. It could be due to the reason that some of male members of household had gone back for repair and reconstruction of their damaged houses or for cultivation as agriculture was one the main source of livelihood. 0,000,000 00,000 0,000 80,000,000 60,000 0,000 0,000 0,000,000 0 0 R R R R R6 no. of households no. of individuals,,, and have shown a significant decrease in the number of households living at displacement sites.

It reflects the continuing basic lifesaving and shelter needs that were likely exacerbated by insufficient supply throughout the affected districts specifically during the winter season. Though the increased number of temporary shelters made with CGIs in displacement sites (from % to 76% when compared to Round ) had likely contributed to the satisfied shelter conditions yet there was still need of CGIs for better shelter conditions before the upcoming monsoon season.

DISPLACEMENT TRACKING MATRIX : NEPAL EARTHQUAKE 0 DTM ROUND 6 : PUBLISHED 8 MARCH 06 DTM METHODOLOGY This Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) report is produced by the International Organization for Migration in its role as CCCM Cluster Lead Agency. Data was gathered by field staff and analysed by a team in. Prior to data collection, the DTM team contacts local authorities, humanitarian partners, and key informants to gather information about sites to be targeted for each round of the DTM. Criteria for conducting on-site assessments are as follow:. 0 households or more the number of households living on site exceed 0.. Higher density tents/shelters in camp-like setting excluding villages that have scattered shelter within.. Cross-district displacement Groups of IDPs that have been displaced from another district, even if they do not comply to having 0 households or more. IDPs living on site accessing basic services and infrastructure on site. Accessing toilets/latrines on site, or using a nearby toilet that is NOT their own. Possession of their belongings look for things like cooking pots and stoves. Clear indications that they are cooking on site (gas cylinders, communal cooking area). The data is collected primarily through key informant interviews, observations, small group discussions with both men, women and children. For every site, the team completes a standard assessment form (available on link below). The field teams approach each individual camp in a targeted manner, so the method of data collection can vary depending on the situation of the specific site. AVAILABLE RESOURCES This report is a short synthesis of top line figures and basic analysis of the DTM database. Round 6 data upon which this report is based, as well as data from previous rounds, are publicly available at: http://www.cccmnepal.org/dtm (note: sensitive data on protection at site level is available through protection cluster) The web page also provide links to the following: A Site Profile document giving all basic information of all sites assessed in the DTM is available in the form of a Site Profile PDF from A google map showing the location and basic demographics information of all displacement sites in Nepal is available at http://cccmnepal.org/dtmsitesmap For more information and queries, please contact: NepalEqDTM@iom.int Chuchepati - www.cccmcluster.org Page of www.cccmnepal.org/dtm
